Radicle

Radicle HTTP Daemon

Download

You can download the appropriate tarball for your operating system with:

curl -O -L https://files.radicle.xyz/releases/latest/radicle-$TARGET.tar.xz

For Radicle proper, and:

curl -O -L https://files.radicle.xyz/releases/radicle-httpd/latest/radicle-httpd-$TARGET.tar.xz

For Radicle HTTP Daemon.

Replace $TARGET with the appropriate target for your system, from the table above.

Verification

After you’ve downloaded the archive (ARCHIVE.tar.xz in the examples below), verify the signature using the .sig file and ssh-keygen. The output must match the following, including the respective signing key fingerprint from the section above. For example:

$ ssh-keygen -Y check-novalidate -n file -s ARCHIVE.tar.xz.sig < ARCHIVE.tar.xz
Good "file" signature with ED25519 key SHA256:iTDjRHSIaoL8dpHbQ0mv+y0IQqPufGl2hQwk4TbXFlw

To verify the checksum, download the .sha256 file, and run:

$ sha256sum -c ARCHIVE.tar.xz.sha256
ARCHIVE.tar.xz: OK

The output must correspond to the above.

Installation

To install, simply extract the files to a location in your PATH, for example:

$ tar -xvJf ARCHIVE.tar.xz --strip-components=1 -C ~/.radicle/

This will place binaries in ~/.radicle/bin and manuals in ~/.radicle/man, and overwrite any existing Radicle binaries.
